That’s The Story Of My Life is a song by The Velvet Underground which appears on their third and self-titled record. The song starts out in a very lighthearted mood and it has almost a childish tone to it in my opinion due to the very light guitar riff …

Hit Me Like You Did The First Time is a song by The Flaming Lips and the second song to appear on their fifth album, Hit To Death In The Future Head. Opening up with a somewhat lighthearted pattern, Coyne thankfully comes in with a vocal performance which sounds …

This family man, Seal has a very nice, charming and super amazing voice. I highly recommend all music fans out there to go and listen to Soul by Seal. This man truly has soul! And it is not hard to know some part on why Heidi is …

Ciara ft. Missy Elliott
“1, 2 Step”
Goodies
LaFace Records
Director: Benny Boom
“1, 2 Step” is Ciara’s follow-up single and music video to “Goodies” off of the album of the same name, “Goodies”. The song is obviously inspired (extremely inspired, I might add) by 1980s electronic music. In the lyrics, Ciara often describes …

Waiting For The Worms is a song by Pink Floyd which appears on their record The Wall. The track opens up in an extremely melodic fashion where Waters sings along with harmonized dubs of his own voice which provides a very full sound vocally. The intro of this track …

Genesis is LEGENDARY British band in the progressive rock genre. Originally, I wasn’t too keen on them, but after Phil Collins took over from Peter Gabriel, that is when I became aware of Genesis as a band, and actually began to like them and respect them for what they …

Canadian rockers Finger Eleven have been kicking it now for more than eleven years. From the underground smart-grunge sounds of their 1997 debut album “Tip” to the emotive and acoustic-laden drones of 2003’s self-titled outing, they’ve managed to run the gamut within the confines of alternative hard rock.
But with …

Somewhat Damaged is a track by Nine Inch Nails which appears on The Fragile. Somewhat Damaged starts out with sort of an awkward guitar riff and then an even stranger drum pattern which makes the song sound pretty eerie as it first starts out. Reznor comes in with the …

Hollywood Undead released their debut album “Swan Songs” in August 2008. It’s hard to describe their music genre, as they pull from so many different styles. They are most commonly referred to as rap rock, but I feel their music goes so beyond that label.
The …

Dolly Parton is so much more than just a country music singer. She is an actress and all around fun and happy person that deserves all the wonderful things that she has in her life. She is an endearing person who has been known for her rather large bosom …

“Far Behind” is quite possibly Candlebox’s biggest single. In fact, it is the only song I actually know by them off hand anyways. The song reached the Billboard Top 20 in July of 1993 but wasn’t officially released as a single until 1994. The song appears on their self …

Bye, Bye, Bye By *Nsync is a song that when I was a kid I absolutely loved. Me and my sister used to have a cd with *Nsync on it but we don’t have it anymore because we wore the cd out. After we were done with it, it …

I really enjoy the simplicity of this track. The gentle opening and how gradually it starts to develop into what is just a great sounding track.
Again, it’s Gary Barlow behind it, the writer and the driving force behind Take That.
As a performance it does build gradually, it doesn’t explode …

The End Of Heartache is Killswitch Engage’s third album, second album on Roadrunner Records, and first album to feature vocalist Howard Jones as Jesse Leach’s replacement. The album was released in 2004, and like the last 2 albums was again produced by drummer Adam Dutkiewicz. If you are looking …

Black Rain is the Ozzy Osbourne’s 9th studio album. As I know, it is released by Epic Records in 2007. The album became famous with the fact that it is the last album with Zakk Wylde on guitars.
Black rain has nothing to do with all the other albums from …

First off, I have never been completely hooked on Rihanna and her music before, well, before this song. Her whole new cd, “Talk That Talk” is the greatest cd ever. The whole album is so catchy. And this song is totally one of my favorite songs on the album. …

Literally shocking the Death Metal scene, in 2005 Opeth signed to American Metal label Roadrunner and released “Ghost Reveries”, a masterpiece that transcends all of their previous albums.
Many were reluctant about Opeth leaving European label Koch and signing to an American “mainstream” label, stating that the band had sold …

Starting with the album title, this CD has all the markings of a band that is representing a 12-step program. But, do not let that deter you from one of the best albums ever. Yes, I said ever.
Opening with “The Package”, Maynard (the lead singer), …

Mother’s Little Helper is a song by the Rolling Stones which appears on Aftermath. The music isn’t anything too special on this track but the reason why I enjoy this track is because of Jagger’s vocal performance and the lyrics to this song as well which basically create a …

I actually heard the song entitled “All because of you” for the first time on MTV. They were having a countdown and this song was one of the featured songs with a video to go along with it as well. All because of you is a song by an …

One of my favourite soul singers from the nineteen nineties was the singer Peabo Bryson. Although I am not usually a fan of soul music, some of his hits are among the few soul songs I actually like, and most of them were released in the period of the …

If you love smooth jazz, then I suggest that you get “Always”, an album by saxophonist Nelson Rangell. It is soulful and romantic, just the kind of album you’d want to listen to with your spouse or significant other on a quiet evening when you finally get a …

I love the title of this album, The Alternative to Love by Brendan Benson pretty much. The album has a kind of oldies-sound or rather indie-sounding and very infectious. I love tracks like Alternative to Love, Feel Like Myself, Between Us and many more. Imagine an Oasis …

Greyhoundredux is a song by MGMT which appears on their first record, Climbing To New Lows. What’s interesting about Greyhoundredux is that it’s an instrumental track which surprised me to be honest. I mentioned in my review of Honey Bunny that you really can’t expect a young new band …

I am a huge fan of and specialist in KMFDM music. I have been listening to them for a very long time. I find their music very original, very special and characteristic to them. They created their own style, and they follow by it. But, on this album, this …

I love the album Faster Pussycat by Faster Pussycat. I had never heard of this 1980’s hair band until about 4 years ago when my boyfriend bought a DVD that had one of their songs on it and I fell in love with it.

Black Sabbath’s self titled debut was released in 1970 on Warner Bros Records, produced by Rodger Bain, it was the first heavy metal album. Black Sabbath were known as Earth before the albums release, and they played blues in the beginning, they changed the name of the band and …

Listening to this song when Im totally mad about something, it makes you realize what good music really is. It provokes an emotion inside of you, thats exactly what this song does. Eminem may be known for his dirty lyrics and choice language but he is one of the …

Panopticon is a one-man black-metal band from Louisville, Kentucky. The band is sole member Austin Lunn, who in my opinion is an amazing multi-instrumentalist. In the album Roads to the North, Panopticon not only brings in your typical instruments (guitars, drums and vocals) that you find in a rock/metal …

So we’ve all seen plenty of music videos that switch between shots of the band rocking in the background and a dramatic scene played by a couple of actors. But never before have I seen something so entirely original that I just sit back and think, “What a great …

Remember when the Mumford-constructed song “Ho Hey” became a huge worldwide hit last 2012? Well, I still could but I never listened to it more than twice. I am a huge fan of Mumford & Sons and I think copying their signature sound wouldn’t do a band any good. …

This is actually music from the pilot movie to Stargate SG-1 called “Children of the Gods.” The stars were Richard Dean Anderson, Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping, and Christopher Judge.

I kind of like Will Young. And he has proved his talent in Let It Go by Will Young. I do think that he has such a great voice and he is also someone whom could write his own materials and that includes songs. Awesome, right. …

I wasn’t too familiar with Tinie Tempah before I saw his album advertised on the telly and often that is when you realise how many of his songs that you already knew. One stood out for me, this was Written In The Stars. I had heard it on the …

She’s My Best Friend is a song by The Velvet Underground which appears on their record VU. The track starts off with a traditional rock and roll rhythm with Doug Yule coming in with the lead vocals of the track with a decent melody but he seems to sort …

Holiday is a song by Vampire Weekend which appears on their second album, Contra. Though I’m sure many listeners are already familiar with this song due to the advertisement from Honda as well as various other companies and possibly the radio playing it so often, it’s still a fun …

One of my favorite performers throughout my life has been Donny Osmond, so I strive to get all the CDs, though I haven’t been able to do that as much in recent years. However, I was able to get the Donny Osmond: Somewhere in Time CD which lists …

I am so tired of Top 40 Radio stations. I hate the music they constantly play. It is hardly ever good. It’s unimaginative drivel with stupid lyrics that grate on my nerves. I listen to it every once in awhile to see if something good comes out, but no. …

Disintegration/Free Money is a song by Slayer which appears on their record Undisputed Attitude. Like the rest of this record, this song is a cover of a punk band known as Verbal Abuse. To be fair, I didn’t really like this record very much and didn’t think Slayer did …

This is one of the most romantic songs ever recorded as far as I am concerned. Engelbert Humperdink was well known for his romantic songs. This is absolutely the love song of the century. Engelbert has one of those voices that had the ability to melt women’s hearts. He …

Katy perry is a new comer in music industry but I think her song is good and most people like it. This song, I kissed a girl is a funny song. The genre of this song is pop. The lyrics is tell about the girl who kissed a girl …
